In front of me waiting

by Sanchez - Capricorn

It all started years ago
when I was young and untouched by earthly caresses
The sky would follow never lead
till' I pulled lightly on it's tresses

The veil of humanity fell very lightly through the 
air, as will the story I will tell
 
Through the streets I would stalk  
head up high, never down
with an attitude I still walk
followed by persusion

With every step I took
it tapped me on the shoulder
and very often I looked

I would be blind to all the wrong
thinking nothing of what was right

with a new mission on my mind
my body felt so strong 
I did the deed
I was let loose 
I'd paid my fee

some have condemed me 
not wishing me so well
don't they know life's just one big cell

back on the street I'd look over my shoulder
wondering what next would come 
would I hide - would I run
not to be taken over

I would walk with my mind always contemplating
but I didn't have to go far
there it stood in front of me waiting

Reason for writing:

    Personal experiences
